F-type Pyocins are Diverse Non-Contractile Phage Tail-Like Weapons for Killing <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>

2021-02-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Most Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains produce bacteriocins derived from contractile or non-contractile phage tails known as R-type and F-type pyocins, respectively. These bacteriocins possess strain-specific bactericidal activity against P. aeruginosa and likely increase evolutionary fitness through intraspecies competition. R-type pyocins have been studied extensively and show promise as altern...
